Henry Bond was about seven years old when his father died. His mother found it1 to support the large family. However, she tried her best to do so. Also, she2 Henry, the eldest son, to school.
At one time, Henry needed a grammar book for his study. His family was so 3that his mother could not afford one.
One morning, Henry found that a deep snow had fallen, and the 4 wind was blowing. "Ah," he said, "it is an ill wind that blows nobody good." With these words, he ran to the house of a neighbor, and offered his 5 to move away the snow around it. The offer was accepted. When he finished the work, he received his 6 Then he went to another place for the 7 purpose, and then to another, 8he had earned (挣得) enough to buy a grammar book.
From that time, Henry was9 the first in all his classes. He knew no such word as "10", and he succeeded in all he tried to do. Having the will, he always found the way.
It's that time again—to say goodbye to another year, look to the future and think about what is to come. Here are two things we all look forward to in the year 2016.
The opening of Shanghai's new Disneyland Park has been highly expected since construction(建设) began in April 2008. It will be finished in June in 2016. When it opens, the park will have the biggest castle(城堡) of any Disneyland and one of the largest lakes too. There are also new special attractions, especially for Chinese visitors. One of these will be the zodiac(十二生肖) character garden. A Disney character will represent each of the zodiac characters.
Also, the four-year wait is over. The Summer Olympics are back in Rio de Janeiro(里约热内卢), Brazil! Altogether 10,500 athletes from 206 countries and regions(地区)around the world are preparing to compete and trying to bring home one of the 306 gold medals from the Rio Olympics. Golf and rugby(橄榄球) are two new events being reintroduced(再引入)to the games this year. So the games in the Rio Olympic will increase to 28.
Have you ever wanted to achieve something really amazing in life? Well, Greg Morten son wanted to climb a mountain, but he ended up helping thousands of people to have a better life.
Greg's story began with failure. In 1993, he set out to climb K2, the world's second highest mountain. But Greg never made it to the top. After five days, he stumbled(踉跄) into the village of Korphe in northern Pakistan, injured(受伤) and hungry. The kind villagers there looked after him for several days.
Greg saw that the villagers were very poor and hungry, and some of them were ill. Also, the village school didn't have a roof(屋顶) and the children wrote on the ground with sticks. Greg knew he wanted to do something to help." I'll build you a school," he told the villagers. "I promise."
Greg went back home to the USA to raise money for the school. He even lived in the car to save money! Finally he went back to Korphe and built the school. But this was just the beginning of something bigger! Since then, Greg's organization has built around 80 schools and runs many others in Pakistan and other countries, too.
Greg hasn't finished yet. He does many other things to help people in poor c ountries. He has got many prizes, but it's the smiles of the children he has helped that makes him happy!
Greg has just written a best-selling book about his story called Three Cups of Tea. It's an interesting and exciting book which tells us what ordinary(普通的)people can do with courage and determination(决心)!
Once upon a time there was no tea at all in England. People there used to drink a light beer(啤酒). No coffee or milk but large glasses of beer stood on the breakfast table!
When tea was first brought to England, an old couple got some as a special treat. But they did not know how it should be used. They cooked the leaves in hot water, and spread them on a piece of bacon(熏肉) which they were going to have for dinner. They ate the leaves, and threw the tea away! However, tea is becoming as popular as coffee and milk in England today.
Tea is the leaf of a plant which grows widely in China, Japan and some other countries. Tea famers usually grow many tea plants on a large piece of land. When the tea leaves are ready to be picked, it is the busiest time for tea farmers in a year. They pull off on the leaves and dry them. In their spare time, they pick out the best leaves and get them ready for market. In china, whenever a visitor comes into a house, he is served with a cup of tea.
The China Foundation for poverty Alleviation(中国扶贫基金会) has started a program to hire and train 100 local women as substitute mothers(替代妈妈) to take care of left-behind children. The three-year program will select 100 villages across Sichuan Province and hire one woman each village.
"It's a model to solve the problem of left-behind children." said Liu Wenkui, Secretary of the foundation. The "substitute mothers" will do parents' job, finding out what the children need and helping them with problems. Each substitute mother will take of about 300 to 500 children. There will be a "children's home" in each village to be the mother's office and children's playing space. Their job will provide quick service, discover the children's problems.
The program hopes to hire women aged 19 to 55 years old from the villages." We want to hire full-time 'mothers' to make sure they won't think about other work," Liu said. "We want local women because they understand local languages and cultures." The program in Sichuan is an experiment, and Liu said," If it is a successful model, we will start it in the whole country."
If parents are forced to leave home to earn a living and unable to take their children with them, we are looking for a transitional(过渡的) way to solve the problem, he added.

Recently a popular song "Where has the time gone" are sung by many people in China. It tells us not waste time. Time is life. Time is power. Here is a saying: "Time is money." Time is very important, and it is much valuable than money. But some people do not realize them. They do not make full use of their time. They spend their time talking or playing or doing anything useless. Time flies quick, and life is short. The lost time will never return back. So wasting time means wasting part of your life. As a student, we should make full use of our time such that we can make a contribution to our country in the future. Never leave today work till tomorrow. |
